The Early Singles is a CD that is available only on Pink Floyd's 1992 Shine On box set. It is a compilation of the first five Pink Floyd singles, in order. Except for the song "The Scarecrow", which appeared on The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967), and "Careful with That Axe, Eugene", a live version of which was on Ummagumma, the rest of the tracks were not released on any studio albums. Although several of the tracks appeared on earlier compilations (notably Relics (1971) and Works (1983), this was the first release that brought the 1960s singles together. To date, it is still the only official CD release to contain "Point Me at the Sky" and "It Would Be So Nice".
2010 collection that brings together, for the first time, the tracks of Pink Floyd and solo Syd Barrett on one compilation. David Gilmour, who originally worked with Syd Barrett on the solo albums by co-producing The Madcap Laughs and as producer of Barrett has taken the role of executive producer for the album and has remixed five tracks including 'Octopus;, ;She Took A Long Cool Look;, 'Dominoes' and 'Here I Go', on which Gilmour has added and played bass guitar. Pink Floyd's 'Matilda Mother' also receives a fresh 2010 mix. Brand new artwork has been provided by Storm Thorgerson and his estimable studio.
In 1997, EMI Records issued Pink Floyd's first three singles along with their respective B-sides as a CD EP entitled "Pink Floyd/1967: The First 3 Singles." Collectors take note: The songs here are in their original, mono format.
David Gilmour's Live in Gdansk was recorded and filmed in 2006 at the Polish city's shipyards, the very same historic location where Lech Walesa's Solidarity movement began its populist assault on the country's repressive Soviet-installed regime in 1980. By all accounts of the time it was a truly awesome multimedia spectacle. But there are strange and sad ironies that accompany this release as well. For starters, it was released in the U.K. exactly a week after the death of Richard Wright, Gilmour's longtime bandmate in Pink Floyd, and his keyboardist here.
Oh, by the Way is a compilation box set by Pink Floyd. The box set includes all of their standard studio albums packaged together as mini-vinyl replicas. In addition to the albums, and their extras, the set comes with a specially designed 40th Anniversary poster by Storm Thorgerson, featuring 40 Pink Floyd images. It was released on December 11, 2007. The title is a reference to a line in the song "Have a Cigar": "The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think / Oh by the way, which one"s Pink?" The box cover consists of a concept similar to that of Ummagumma - one side of the box shows a picture of a room with various objects scattered about inside it, with pictures of the main band members - Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright - on the walls, whilst the other side shows the same room in different lighting, with the objects and pictures of band members rearranged. In both images there is a man standing in silhouette in a doorway in the distance; he might represent Syd Barrett, or the mythical "Pink".
